Description: The AVO designed 20mm solid rear stabilizer bar is a big improvement over the standard USDM or JDM OEM tube-construction rear stabilizer bar. Adjustable for roll resistance, it improves turn-in, removes body roll in corners, and works very well with the standard 21mm front stabilizer bar. A must have! Will fit to a USDM Legacy GT or Outback XT with the provided rear 20mm polyurethane bushings.

Pros: Much flater turning, cars feels more solid.
Cons: Pain to install if you don't unbolt exhaust

I install the AVO rear sway bar this weekend and, except for a snag, it went very well. I had the car on jacks with both wheels off and it was still difficult to thread the new bar in. I would recommend disconnecting the exhaust connections. Oh, while you're back there... change your read brake pads!!!

Anyway, after the install, I immediately noticed how much flatter the car behaves during fast turning. This is a great upgrade and should have been built this way from the factory.

Pros: Quality piece, BEEFY!
Cons: none

Hot dog, what an improvement!!! Granted, I have several upgraded suspension pieces on my car, this had to be one of the bigger bangs after install!

Without a doubt, one must install this piece with the AVO swaybar brackets for proper reinforcement on the chassis mount points. If you don't, you risk bending the stock brackets. I seriously laughed at the difference in diameter between the AVO piece and stock....just simply laughable!

Pros:
Cons:

When you say "sway bar brackets" do you mean "end links" or the "RSB mounts"? See: http://www.rallitek.com/leousu.html for illustration.

Pros: easy installation, amazing results.
Cons:

Before I installed this sway bar, I thought stiffer springs would reduce the roll enough for me.

After I installed this sway bar, I had an "oh wow" moment, and told myself I should've done this alot sooner. As others have mentioned, the car is alot more neutral now. It reduced rear body roll and understeer is pretty much gone.

During turns I can feel the car wanting to transfer power and momentum forward, and I'm no longer using my power just to keep the car on course.

I would recommend this as a must buy for anyone looking to upgrade their suspension and improve the handling.
